Rhymefest Says Kanye West Needs Mental Health Counseling

It's hard to know where eccentricity stops and legitimate problems begin. Kanye has always been a little, well, Kanye, but some of his recent behavior is enough to make you wonder if he's really losing it this time. Rhymefest, Kanye's longtime friend and songwriter who's credited as a co-writer on hits like "Jesus Walks" and "New Slaves," certainly seems to think so, as HipHopDX points out:

@freddief5 @Rayzure stooop, nobody airing nobody out. Until you walk our paths I ask that you reserve judgments

Honestly, who knows what's going on with Kanye right now, but hopefully he can relax a bit once the craziness of this crazier-than-usual album cycle dies down.
